June 13, 2015Fat Camp Podcast #2 with Ken and Andy – Hub Standards
Show Notes for Podcast #2:
Goal of Podcast – Explain why you may want to consider a wider hub than “normal” in the future
Introductory info:
Q-Factor Diagram
Boost Hubs – 148mm spacing rear, 110mm front
150/157mm rear spacing – Long time standard for downhill bikes
Chain line basics
Sheldon Brown on chainline
Chainrings are 7.5-8mm apart
Boost 148 – moves cassette out by 3mm
150/157 – moves cassette out by 7.5mm
Raceface Cinch bottom bracket compatibility chart (including 83mm BBs)
Wider hubs – wheel stuff
Wider hubs = stronger wheels
A wider hub increases the “bracing angle” of the spokes giving side forces on the rim less leverage to decrease the spoke tension.
The Bicycle Wheel by Jobst Brandt
Tire/drivetrain clearance
Two primary issues with 3” or bigger tires
Chain rub on tire
Keeping chainstays thick enough to be strong/stiff without compromising tire or chainring clearance
Both of the above are solved by moving the chain line outward (getting chainrings out of way)
Wider hubs allow shorter chainstays with fewer drivetrain constrictions.
Niner ROS 9 – “chain and derailleur cage clearance with the fatter 3.0 tires is not ideal, and complete bikes will only get single chainring builds” – Niner product manager Barrett James – http://www.bikerumor.com/2014/08/14/new-niner-ros9-plus-29er-fat-bike-crushes-trails-special-imba-edition-helps-build-them/
Surly Krampus – recommend 1x on any crank or 2x with Surly’s OD crank – http://surlybikes.com/bikes/krampus
Bottom line:
Boost is the bare minimum to allow + sized wheels and 2x drivetrains plus lots of other benefits
150/157 is boost-ier and offers bigger benefits but you start to get some negatives that may or may not affect you specifically
Why wouldn’t riders want to have the option to run + tires as well as all the “normal” tire sizes?
You don’t need Boost to go + if you are fat – Listen to our last show for more info

May 23, 2015World Premier! Fat Camp Podcast With Ken and Andy
Welcome to the World Premier of Ken and Andy’s Fat Camp Podcast here on Fat-bike Radio! Ken and Andy will be presenting fat-bike tech through their podcast and this week they are delving into making your fat-bike more Summer friendly.

Look for The Fat Camp Podcast monthly on the 2nd Saturday of the month beginning June 13th right here at fat-bike.com!

Show Notes for Podcast #1: Converting your fat bike for summer riding.

There are 3 basic options that may be open to you right now:
Light fast rolling 26×4” tires and possible some skinnier/lighter 26” wheels
27+ (aka 650b+) wheels and tires
29+ wheels and tire
Your wide hub spacing makes for super strong/stiff wheel
Instead of $$ towards two bikes, you can put your money towards a 2nd set of wheels and/or higher end wheels.
26×4” The tried and true setup for summer fat bike riders
Been done for years now so no point in spending a lot of time on this
Discuss pros of this route compared to + options:
Discuss cons of this route compared to + options:
Go tubeless if at all possible.
Decide on rim width
Discuss geometry effects
Plus sized options:
Pros of + size options:
Cons of + sized options:
Which do you go with? 27+ or 29+?
Short answer: If your bike is designed for 4” tires only, go 27+ and if your bike is designed for 5” tires, go 29+.
There is a Long Answer too! Listen and learn!

Other things to consider when “summerizing” your fatty

There is a great article on Meriweather Cycles page where they interview Travis Brown!
